Where’s The Evidence? Ro Khanna Challenges Bill Ackman Over Harvard Allegations

India-West News Desk

WASHINGTON, D.C.– Congressman Ro Khanna directly challenged billionaire Bill Ackman’s claims about Harvard University, demanding evidence for his accusations regarding antisemitism and foreign student funding. This exchange comes amidst a heated dispute between Harvard and the Trump administration.

Ackman, a Harvard alumnus, recently posted a lengthy statement on X, alleging the university’s “gross mismanagement” and “ideological capture” have fostered antisemitism, indirectly leading to incidents like the Capital Jewish Museum killing. He further claimed “credible evidence” exists that some foreign students at Harvard have received funding from “foreign actors” and supported “foreign terrorist organizations.”

The hedge fund manager’s remarks followed the Trump administration’s decision to pause federal funding for Harvard and cancel its Student and Exchange Visa Program certification. The administration cited Harvard’s refusal to provide requested documentation about its foreign students and its failure to address antisemitism as reasons for these actions. President Trump had previously threatened to bar Harvard from enrolling international students unless it submitted a record of global students involved in protests, crime, or violence. 

Khanna, who has been a vocal critic of the Trump administration’s actions against Harvard, directly responded to Ackman’s assertions on X, simply asking, “@BillAckman where is the evidence?”
